Flat Tinsel CzechNymph 0.4 mm

Flat Tinsel 0.4 mm is the most commonly used size of flat tinsel and a truly essential fly-tying material found in a vast number of patterns. Its bright shine makes flies more attractive and visually striking, which is why it’s widely used in nymphs, wet flies, lake flies, streamers, and many larger patterns.

This universal tinsel can be used to create bodies, ribbing, backs, tips, tags, and various decorative details. It is easy to work with, and the standard plastic spools—equipped with end caps featuring a slotted thread lock—ensure smooth handling and secure storage. Each spool contains 20 meters of material, providing plenty for frequent tying.
